Emmerdale star Jay Kontzle has appeared to rule out an affair storyline for his character Billy Fletcher and village doctor Manpreet Sharma.
The ITV soap is exploring an unexpected connection between the two characters, which culminates in Manpreet betraying her partner Charles Anderson next week.
Manpreet has realised that she has a crush on Billy after signing up for his new personal training sessions in the village hall.
Next week, Manpreet kisses Billy on the lips after getting drunk with her friends at The Woolpack. Billy rejects her but there's trouble ahead when Charles finds out what happened .
Speaking to Digital Spy and other press about Manpreet's feelings for Billy, Jay laughed: ⁘It's one of those things where in the back of your mind you're like 'God, why have you done that?'
⁘But at the same time, I think that Billy and Dawn are that strong that nothing can really fracture their relationship. I think that there's nothing there that would make Dawn think any differently of Billy.
Billy was previously caught up in a similar scenario with Gabby Thomas when she also tried to kiss him. He stayed loyal to Dawn by setting boundaries with Gabby.
